Exponential Conference: Park Inspiring Others

Just got back from Orlando (a full day saga to get back to O-Hare– uugh!) where I attended the Exponential Conference — AKA The 2007 National New Church Conference.  While there, I had heard many great speakers (I’ll blog later) but I got a chance to check in with Mark Batterson, Lead Pastor at National Community Church in Washington DC. who told me that our church, Park Community Church has played a part in their baptisms.  Apparently, a number of years ago, Mark saw a video of our baptism service in Lake Michigan with the Chicago skyline in the background and was inspired to  do a lake baptism in the same style.  Park ’s national influence continues…this time to Washington DC!  Yea GOD!

Check out video of our Lake Michigan baptisms here.
